In early summer, the mountains are rolling, the trees are shady, and the farmhouse is hidden among them, which is picturesque, quiet and leisurely. The group returned with a full load, no, it was the two girls Su and Yang who caught a lot of fish and returned to the farmhouse.
"We're back!"
Nanny Sui, who was in charge of the farm stay, was already waiting at the door with her little maid. When she saw Su Ruojin and her group coming up, she hurried over and took the fish tied with grass, while bowing to Zhao Lan and others.
Shangguan Yu, who had returned earlier with Zhong Wanhui, also came over and said, "I greet the young prince and the young general."
"Mr. Shangguan, there is no need to be so polite."
Zhao Lan, Ning Qi and Shangguan exchanged a few pleasantries. It was noon and the sun was at its highest point, so they didn't talk much and went into the yard and onto the corridor.
Madam Sui asked, "Second Madam, do you want to eat these fish for lunch?"
It was already noon, and Su Ruojin knew they must have prepared lunch, so she was not in a hurry to make it. "First, marinate it with salt, and then put it in the well water to cool it down. We will have a campfire fish feast tonight."
When Nanny Sui heard this, she hurried to make arrangements.
Yang Si Niang was very curious when she heard about bonfire, "Bonfire?"
"Yes, like the nomads on the grassland, we build a fire, roast food around it, or sing and dance."
The three men were about to find their own rooms, but when they heard Su Ruojin's words, they stopped curiously, "Just grilled fish?"
Su Ruojin smiled and said, "Seventh Young Master, if you feel that eating fish is not enough..." Pointing to the mountains behind him, he said, "You can also go hunting for silly roe deer and fat wild rabbits."
Ning Qilang had been stuck in the capital for a long time, and his body had been itching for a long time. He smiled and replied, "No problem, I will take care of it."
Ning Ba Niang, who had been listless just now, became excited when she heard this, "Brother, I'll go too."
Ning Qilang was about to say that it was dangerous for girls to go into the mountains, but when he saw the young lady standing across from him eager to try, he changed his words and said, "Okay, but you have to listen to me. You can only go around here, not deep into the mountains. There are large wild animals in the depths, which is dangerous."
As long as she could go, Ning Banniang agreed to everything and said, "I'll listen to you, brother." But no one knew whether she would listen to him or not.
Zhao Lan looked at the young lady and thought, Ah Jin must go, but...
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Seventh Master. I won't go. If you hunt rabbits or something, give me a share."
"You're not going?" He said this to Su Ruojin, but he was looking at Zhao Lan.
Zhao Lan didn't expect Ah Jin not to go. If she didn't go, he wouldn't be interested. "Then I'll take advantage of the general's offer and help me catch a rabbit."
Ning Family Brothers and Sisters: ...
"With so few people, it's not fun!"
Seeing that the young master didn't want to go, Hua Ping stepped forward and said, "I'll accompany the young general." He hadn't hunted for a long time, so he was interested.
After thinking about it, Zhao Lan asked Santai and Ning Qi to go hunting for some wild animals and have a bonfire at night.
Why didn't Su Ruojin go?
Because just now, she felt her period coming, so she had to change her clothes quickly. Her stomach still ached slightly. She was fifteen years old this year, and her period finally came. She was considered a grown-up girl.
After finishing the discussion, everyone went back to their rooms, washed off the dust, and prepared to eat.
After Zhao Lan changed his clothes and washed his face in his room, he came to find Su Ruojin. The little maid Bihe at the door bowed and said, "The second lady is changing her clothes. Please go to the wing room and wait."
Zhao Lan seemed not to hear what the little girl said and called out inside, "Ajin——" It seemed that something had happened when the lively little girl suddenly stopped going hunting.
"Brother Jin, please wait for me in the side room."
There was a hint of panic in the young lady's voice. Zhao Lan's heart tightened and he looked around the farmhouse out of habit. Could there be some danger again?
Worried even more, he called out again: "A Jin..."
"It's okay, Brother Jin, wait for me in the side room."
The young lady's voice is still low? Zhao Lan was not at ease, so he stretched out his hand and pushed the door open. (End of this chapter)
